Home inspections are comfort food for people who don't or can't see what is or isn't wrong with a house. I've bought and sold at least 8 homes and never used an inspector, after the first one. They have all kind of disclaimers. For instance in your case, I'm sure they state if it's behind a wall they're not responsible. Bottom line is I may not have picked up the bad wiring if I inspected myself, but I didn't pay someone who is supposed to be the expert $500 to not find it either.
